The #Klartext Demokratie project will ENGAGE young people in the democratic participation in European society. They deal with the democratic foundations of Germany and Europe, identify the roots of undemocratic tendencies, and form their opinion about the state of European and German democracy. The participants detect and critically analyse anti-democratic tendencies and develop arguments against these threats to democracy. This helps the youngsters finding their voice in a political landscape in which political actors openly endorse undemocratic champions worldwide and are increasingly flirting with undemocratic policies. The project will further ENGAGE young people in an open DIALOGUE with a political decision-maker. This makes the event series a real “laboratory for democracy” in which youngsters exercise their democratic communication rights in order to fight for their right to be heard.
